Studio-A, one of our two premiere Baltimore recording studios, features rustic lodgepole pine paneling in the live room, and a 48-channel Solid State Logic Duality Delta SE automated mixing console in the control room, along with a vintage plate reverb. The inviting, secluded studio’s live room is about 24’ x 33’ with a 16-foot ceiling. There are two isolation booths, both with full views into the live room and the control room. Monitoring is via Focal Trio6 Be, PMC twotwo 8, or Avantone Mix Cube speakers. The studio is equipped with an extensive outboard and microphone collection, as well as a house drum kit, bass and guitar amps, and a Nord Stage 2 keyboard.

For relaxing in between takes and staying fresh during long sessions, each studio has a lounge with a kitchenette and a private ensuite bathroom with a shower. Stages is also conveniently located near a variety of restaurants and music shops.

Additionally, Studio-A features a Studio Technologies Echoplate III plate reverb. A Steinway Model M 5’7″ medium grand piano is housed just down the corridor in our performance hall and can be utilized for overdubs remotely via Dante interface (additional charge).
